231 new liver lesions, but who's counting anyway?!

Oh CC,

Not what I had hoped for you my dear friend either.  Who counts that many lesions anyway?  I asked for a recount (lol) though it isn't funny at all.

Of course, you are not giving up!  As John Paul Jones said in the old history books, "we have just begun to fight".  You haven't started any of the other stuff and perhaps we can walk hand in hand.

I am so disappointed for you especially on the eve of happiness with your daughter's new life.  

Sometimes, I like to know who makes these plans, I like to punch them in the nose.  Though I never so much as punch anything in my life.  I'm short, and short people use the pen instead of the fist.  Still makes me so angry for you.  I had to read your posts twice.

Can't express how badly I feel for you.

Gentle hugs,

Doris

I am so sorry that you got this news.  I know it wasn't what you wanted to hear, nor, did any of us want to read it. 

You will be planning your daughter's wedding, going to the wedding and dancing with your husband and celebrating that day!

When do you talk to your onco? 

You keep that sense of humor!  You've been in this fight before, and, if necessary, you can do it again. 

We're here to help you thru it!

Hugs, Noel

Hi.....

I don't post real often, but always have so many here on my mind. This one caught my eye. I am a member on several different forums and have never seen or heard of a scan that read like this. You are right, why not just > than whatever???

You are such an amazing inspiration to so many and I'm sure your onc will come up with a plan that works for you. You often talk about the importance of being compliant and I'll bet that once again this will pay off.

You will be in my thoughts and prayers as you move forward..........

you will look dazzling in your mother of the bride gown and you will be a charming wedding hostess. You may have some yukkiness to go through before you get there, but get there you will.

Your post about counting the numbers is funny, but of course, it's not. It's heartbreaking. I had so hoped the results would be something other than this.

I'm here along with a legion of pink sisters who will carry you through the days ahead.

Big hugs,

Victoria

The wedding is a lovely

The wedding is a lovely distraction.  We have decided on the botannical gardens in the beautiful Cuty Park in New Orleans.  Getting excited!  Bah humbug cancer!

 

which were a gift sent by the Kindreds under Ayse's direction when I first was diagnosed with bone mets last year.  This new development really stinks.  But, I'm counting on your good docs to find the right combo to perform a search and destroy mission on those nasty little suckers--just like they did with the bone mets. 

Stay strong and focused as you always do.  You have been such an inspiration to me and so many others.  By the way, the blanket was a wonderful way to combat the winter's chill--even here in Arizona.  In the winter, the desert gets cold at night.

Take good care--we're all pulling for you big time.

Hugs, Renee

Oh my 231...I'm happy about the bones.  But we're going to have to work on those lesions.  Love you my friend.

Hugs,

Linda

I can just see the tech,  155, 156, 157 (phone rings)  rrrrrgh!   1, 2, 3.....  Probably took them all day

I am so sorry to hear that news. 

You know that we love you and will be pulling for you throughout this slight detour.  You have a wedding to plan and have chosen such a beautiful spot!  Your attitude amazes me, and it will take you to that wedding.  Hugging you bigtime, Linda

How can there be that many lesions in one little liver???  I think someone was seeing double or even triple when they counted.  They probably could not place an X on them as they counted to make sure they didn't count any multiple times.  I know you will get through this and we will be there with you every step of the way.  You will go to that wedding next year!

HUGS!!!

231 and counting, determined pink sisters sending you good vibes. This really shook me. 

But if I know our Queen of Mardi Gras, she will show cancer, what she got. Only you can

put a funny spin on something like this. Always here for you. 

 

Big hug,

Ayse

Darn it!  I hate that ANYONE has to get any news like this!!!  My heading is spinning with this news --  grrrr - I can't imagine what is going thru mind, heart, and soul.  I do know that is hope, and love for you.

All my best dear CC...  and when you get tired, or fatigued -- WE SISTERS IN PINK - WILL BE NEXT TO YOU PUSHING, AND CHEERING YOU ON!!!

Prayers and positive thoughts for you dear Sister in PINK.

grrrr!  Wishing all 231 of those sneaky things away.  We are with you every step of the way, CC.  xoxoxox Lynn

 

about this news.  I'm also confused.   If what you've been doing has put the bone mets into remission, what's with the stuff in the liver and pancreas?   How can they be sure it's breast cancer?  I don't know who counts 231 but I'm also not a radiation oncologist (duh). They are sort of math nerds.  Do you think it might be 2, 3, 1?  Like 2 here, 3 there, 1 somewhere else?    When do you see the oncologist? 

Because I had the 2 cancers at the same time (breast and endometrial) I asked if it came back in for instance my liver how would they know which cancer it was since they both like to go there? And how do they know on a scan if it's a new primary cancer or a recurrence of one of the others?  I was told they would biopsy.  Now whether they would or not I don't know and I hope I never find out, but I'm just sayin' . . .

Adding my hugs and prayers,

Suzanne
